Ok, friends, I need opinions. I am struggling GREATLY with this internal debate on the amount of calories I should be consuming in a day. Yesterday, if you look at my food log, I ate 32 points. I am allowed 25 points, 28 after my workout. So I was four points over. I made HEALTHY decisions. I didn't overeat, I worked out, and I didn't eat after 8pm. I ate snacks like almonds and hard boiled eggs instead of sugary granola bars processed 100 calorie cakes (which i'm not dissing, I just don't like all that processed stuff...)
Now, here's the dilemma. Even though I was over my points by 4, I only ate at 82% of my RDI and burned over 1000 calories more than I consumed. Which should I be following? I know that WW is obviously a successful tool, but I also already lost the bulk of my weight a few years ago...so part of me doesn't think it's really working anymore. Also, after my workout I am STARVING and always end up going over points anyway..
I asked my trainer at the gym, and she said to use the RDI, but she also said that I should only be burning 500 calories more than I consume. Which doesn't work for me because I burn so many calories, I end up eating just to eat. You know?
What are your thoughts/opinions? I feel like this is a constant battle for me and since I just made a bet with my family, I want to be using the most effective tool as far as this weight loss goes.

okay. so i just ate my lunch. leftover salad from last night, protein water, and an apple. had my mid morning snack of peanut butter crackers and yogurt. problem. I AM HUNGRY.
not like oh man i have the munchies hungry. but my stomach is growling and i'm shakey hungry. im going to give it 5 minutes then i'm heading to the vending machine. there is NO WAY i will make it until 3pm without eating something if i'm still this hungry.
i can overcome you, chocolate. i will get something low in points. pretzels. goldfish. NOT combos and NOT chocolate and NOT poptarts.
****UPDATE****
got pretzels. 180 calories and no fat. 3g fiber.

i. am. frustrated. with. myself.
i did SO WELL all day yesterday. I didn't pack my lunch very smartly (not a word...) and I avoided the vending machine even though I wanted to munch. I freakin' broke up with my boyfriend in the afternoon and I DID NOT get a pint of ben and jerrys like I so BADLYYY wanted to. I ate a good dinner of salad with walnuts and cranberries before the gym and a MEASURED bowl of special k after the gym. so tell me why, then, i got up in the middle of the night after a dream and ate a BAGEL?! seriously? its like i was sleep walking. but i was HUNGRY at 1am. HUNGRY. sigh. I'm just frustrated because its times like that where I feel like I am legitimately addicted to food...sigh.
today WILL be better, though. I'm forgetting yesterday. My dad and I are going to go to a weight watchers meeting tonight. I'm going to get myself books and my own counter and recorder and I am going to be GOOD. TO. GO. I need to be held accountable by someone other than myself for this weight or I'm going to be looking at myself in May(goal time) the same way that I'm looking at the PAST 6 months. It's time to just effin do this.

i am back! for good this time.
I have set myself monthly goals and set (nonfood) rewards for each month.
february 10th- 165lbs(again..)
reward: acrylic nails
march 10th- 160lbs
reward: BUY BIKINI
april 10th- 155lbs
reward: new shoes or outfit
may 10th- 150lbs
reward: TATOOO!!!
I think 5lbs a month is a reasonable goal...but i tend to overestimate how much weight i can lose? do we think thats too much? am i going to be let down?
my mom and dad are going back on weight watchers again starting this weeek, too. mom said she's considering going to the meetings..i might go with them, to be honest. i need to be held accountable by someone other than ME. lol.
okay, thats all for now folks. <3
